Srinagar, Jan 2: In a major breakthrough against narcotics trafficking, the Anti-Narcotics Task Force (ANTF) Kashmir has arrested a woman drug peddler who had been evading arrest for over three years in a high-profile NDPS case.
The accused, Tamana Ashraf, daughter of Mohammad Ashraf from Batamaloo, Srinagar, was wanted under FIR No. 10/2023 registered at ANTF Jammu under Sections 8/20 of the NDPS Act. She was allegedly involved in trafficking more than 7 kilograms of charas intended for Mumbai via courier services.
